morphological and biochemical characteristics along with the growth requirements of the halophilic Archaeans; Halobacterium salinarum NRC-1 and Haloferax volcanii DS2. Introduction The domain, Archaea, possesses prokaryotic cells and has a cell wall that contains no peptidoglycan. Archaea contain rRNA that is unique to the Archaea as indicated by the presence of molecular regions. Archaea usually live in extreme environments and include methanogens, extreme halophiles, and hyperthermophiles

G. ROOT BARRIER. This layer prevents plant roots from reaching and penetrating the waterproofing membrane or insulation if there are any. Plants with aggressive root barriers usually penetrate the membrane in search of moisture. H. PROTECTION BOARD. The protection board is used to prevent any damage to the membrane until all essential components are installed. According to Tolderlund (2010), membranes are usually made of durable materials that are water resistant and have a thickness of between 1/8

and show that the composition of the surroundings has a visible (under a microscope) effect on the shape and structure of each individual cell. As the NaCl concentration increased, water rushed out of the cells and caused them to pull away from the wall while as the water concentration increased water rushed into the cells and caused them to swell. Introduction: The “big problem” that is being addressed is the change in a cell’s structure when surrounded by different concentrations of solutions
